South West Road Runners

The South West Road Runners were formed in 1984 primarily as a road running club. Since its move to the old Clifton Hill track and then to the new synthetic track at the Exeter Arena in 1992 there has been a steady broadening of the Club’s activities into track and some field disciplines as well as cross country and trail running and the relatively new sport of Triathlon.

The Club now has more than 300 members, and we take runners from the age of eight years of age, although the great majority of members are now approaching their athletic “maturity”! Despite our name we don't just specialise in running on the roads. Many of our members can be found competing in cross country or taking part in mult-terrain events. We also welcome a whole range of abilities, from those who want nothing more than a social jog around town, right up to county representatives and international Age Group duathletes and triathletes. We're also the only club in Devon & Cornwall to regularly enter a team into the prestigious Welsh Castles Relay Race.
